How we approach this
API engineering, practically.
An API is a contract you have to honour for years. We design REST and GraphQL APIs starting from the failure modes — what happens at 10× traffic, what happens when a downstream goes down, what happens when a client is six versions behind. We document every endpoint with OpenAPI, ship a Postman collection at v1.0, and run a deprecation policy you can put in front of your enterprise customers.
Stack we ship with
Boring tools, by choice.
